Diversity & Inclusion Committee

The purpose of the Diversity and Inclusion Committee, founded in fall 2006, is to bring together members of the University
Community who are engaged in diversity outreach initiatives.

The committee meets monthly to discuss ongoing and upcoming
initiatives and events, and members of the committee continue to focus
on enhancing the environment for diversity and inclusion across the
University. The Spotlight on Diversity initiative, which began in the
spring of 2010 is a monthly feature in @Rochester, Student Buzz and the
Parents Buzz. Committee members are also actively involved in the Office
of the Vice Provost’s efforts to produce the Diversity
Celebration posters which provide resources and organizational support
to annual diversity and inclusion programs of interest to students,
faculty and staff. We now organize posters around Black History Month,
Women's History Month, Hispanic Heritage Month, LGBTQI Awareness Month,
and Native American History Month.
